I have never equated these teddy coats to fur coats, is that what they’re going for? This is a whole article of false equivalency.

I also have the coat and it was a damn champ during the Chicago polar vortex last year! -30 is no joke and it was perfectly warm, and waterproof. I don't live in New York, nor am I a wasteful asshole, so the coat has already been out this year

I’m so sorry you’re dealing with all this on top of a new baby! You should be cuddling that baby and taking care of yourself.  I love your user name BTW; I just ordered a used copy of Rue Mcclanahan's memoir "My First 5 Husbands" 

I’m going to say this year is going to be the worst. I have been tasked by my father and sister to get my mother to take her mental health seriously, as we all believe she is suffering from depression. We’ve all tried to bring this up before, my mother is a wonderful kind person but she’s not happy these days and…

Vacuum packing bags are THE BEST! I got 12 for about $10 on Amazon for a fall trip to New Orleans (sweaty in the afternoon, proper cold at night, intermittent rain). I managed to pack 4 sweaters, 4 jackets, 3 pairs of jeans, 2 dresses, a half dozen tshirts, a pile of socks and undies, 3 pairs of leggings, 2 pairs of…

In highschool, this lunatic girl attacked me in gym class because she didn’t like my sister (admittedly, my sister was a huge asshole in highschool but we remain nothing alike). We both threw some punches and pulled some hair, it lasted seconds, then we both got suspended and I thought she was a piece of shit. We all…

My mother dressed up her pit bull as a ballerina every year, pink or purple were the only acceptable colors. Get on outta here with your doggonormative thinking  :)

My Boston Terrier, Fionnula, is down with comfy sweaters and coats for winter but has very little patience with my costume antics. I get her a new costume every year, she HATES it, and ends up in the taco suit again. Its soft and fits like a coat but it leaves much to be desired with our couples costumes. Dragon (me)…

I just saw a screening of this a few hours ago! Kumail Nanjiani’s weird little alien was the best part of the movie, and the plot was definitely lacking a bit. There were parts I really wanted to see them go for jokes and not rush on to the next set piece but I was never bored. 

I’m so glad you got Portillo’s, best medicine for broken crotches 

This is CHICAGO, the POS president is too afraid to show his putrid face around here and for good damn reason. It is most definitely not MAGA country

I was the one that threw the over the top shower! I hate baby showers because they are hopelessly dull affairs with too much pastel and rarely enough booze, but my bff was pregnant with her first and it was my duty to plan the affair. I actually love planning parties but I’m a weirdo and everyone knows it. So fancy bon…

My little dog is Fionnuala, which most people ask me to repeat and assume I made up. It’s an Irish name I absolutely love but would not inflict on a human child. And everyone just calls her Finny anyway

My godkids found a stray, immediately fell in love, and named him Mr Sparkles. Mr Sparkles got a trip to the vet to make sure he was okay where it was discovered that “he” was pregnant! Still Mr Sparkles. The kids demanded that they keep one of the kittens, now known as Junior Sparkles. These children are extremely fu…

Mortgage professional here! First, contact the student loan people and consolidate as many student loans as possible for the lowest payment. Also tell them you’re looking to qualify for a mortgage so they understand what you’re aiming for (lowest possible payments). Regarding a second job: if you’re just looking to…
